'Ot 'n' Sweaty


'Ot 'n' Sweaty is the fourth album by the American rock band Cactus. It was released in 1972. Original members Jim McCarty and Rusty Day had left the group, so bass guitarist Tim Bogert and drummer Carmine Appice were joined by Werner Fritzschings on guitar, Duane Hitchings on keyboards and Peter French on vocals. This was the band's final album before their long hiatus that lasted until 2006. The first three songs were recorded live on April 3, 1972, in Puerto Rico at the Mar Y Sol Pop Festival, and the rest were recorded in studio. The pinnacle tracks for this album are "Bad Stuff", "Bringing Me Down", "Bedroom Mazurka", "Telling You" and a live recording of "Let Me Swim", which was a song by the original Cactus on their 1970 debut album.
